-Whether you count this season as Year One or Year Zero, the games still count and all will be played. So, is it most important to beat Akron in the first game? Or end the Iowa dominance in the rivalry game to end the season?

-Or is it maybe against a team like Ohio State/Michigan to keep the game close and show signs of competitiveness and not giving up….or Wisconsin? Several games to choose from…some people believe for some reason that the Northwestern game is the most important….

-All 3 seem pretty comfortable in terms of their position, as they have established themselves as coaches of solid programs (let’s forget last year’s Michigan team for a second, here)

-Any of those 3 looking to make a jump to the NFL? It seems unlikely that any of the 3 would be fired…it’d be leaving on their own terms for retirement or a different job, right? How do you see it playing out?

-The Athletic’s Stewart Mandel received an interesting mailbag and was asked if teams that are developmental programs like TCU and Wisconsin—and Nebraska—that don’t have tremendous recruiting rankings, could win a national championship

-Take away your pride and ego for a second and stare reality in the face—Nebraska isn’t a top recruiting school and probably never will be. They were a national championship team in the past because of development more so than recruiting, probably. Can that type of program win a title over teams at the very top of recruiting rankings?
